Holiday Cooking with Herbs (plants, veggies, or flowers)

The weekend is officially here, and so is the holiday season, so here's a special event for Weekend Herb Blogging. Bloggers are still cooking with herbs, plants, veggies or flowers, but this time it's recipes with a holiday feel. To make it more interesting, remember that WHB is a worldwide event, and your definition of holiday food depends on what part of the world you come from. Pull up to the computer, and prepare to sample holiday foods from all over the world!

Appetizers

Gattina has a light appetizer of Mushroom Terrine that's sure to be delicous and also great for anyone who's counting calories.

Another sweet treat from Virginie who always finds interesting ingredients for us, and this recipe for Christmas Tree Mendiants combines dark chocolate with fir tree oil for a Christmas sweet. Again, click the translation link for English.

Scott at Real Epicurean has a holiday look to his blog, and he's sharing a great way to make Mulled Wine.

Indosungod from Daily Musings says this recipe for Vellanga Rasam is not strictly a holiday recipe, but since people often get sick during the holidays it's a good recipe to have around. This will make you feel better if you're getting a cold or just feeling low.

Happy Holidays Everyone!
The next regular WHB recap will be on January 7, when we'll see what herbs, plants, veggies, or flowers people are going to be writing about in 2007! I'm leaving in a few minutes to go spend Christmas with these cute kids, so Kalyn's Kitchen will also be taking a little break until the end of the year. Before I go I'd like to wish anyone reading this a great holiday season, and let you know how much I've enjoyed getting to *know* so many of you this year. I haven't had time to make a new Christmas Podcast, but if you didn't hear it last year, the message still applies, so take a listen. Be sure you have the sound turned on when you click on the link.

If you make a recipe, share it with the hashtag #kalynskitchen on Instagram, Facebook and Twitter so I can see what you're cooking!

What a jolly recap! I'm busy in packing your rosemary salt and Sher's citrus salt in gift bags. You know what, I've also tested Mandira's Indonesian chicken a couple days ago, which I'd like to share my result in the next WHB. Kalyn, thanks a lot for creating this special event, I have to say, I've been recieving lots of compliments to my cooking after I learnt so much from WHB! Have a very merry Christmas *big hug*

Gattina, thanks and Merry Christmas to you too! I'm so glad you liked the flavored salt idea. I can't wait to try Sher's version myself.

Now a P.S. to this post. Try as I might I can't get the photos to space out evenly in a post like this in Blogger. (It reminds me why I never started using photos when I was doing the WHB recaps every week!) If anyone knows the secret to doing that in Blogger, I'd love to know it. They don't even show up quite the same in the published version as they are in the preview. Anyway, enough ARGHHH about that.

I'm leaving now to go spend Christmas with my sister and the adorable kids. Thanks to everyone for the great support for Weekend Herb Blogging. The best part of it all is how much we're all learning from each other.

What a great recap Kalyn. It's been so much fun getting to know what other food bloggers are making in their kitchens and we owe it to you for creating and continuing such a wonderful forum in WHB. What a gift!Enjoy your much deserved holidays with your adorable family."See" you in the New Year!

Thanks for all your hard work this year, Kalyn. I hope you have a wonderful holiday that full of excitement---and rest. :):) It will be fun to hear about all the things you did. My cousin in Mississippi is fixing your family's favorite broccoli casserole! I told her everyone would love it!

I've been away for a few days visiting my sister and her family for Christmas. Thanks to everyone who has left such nice Christmas wishes while I've been gone. I do hope all of you are having a wonderful holiday too.
